Between Light and Balance (2026)Acrylic painting by Samantha Malone

"Between Light and Balance" explores the tension between buoyancy and gravity, calm and density. Floating, organic forms drift across the surface, some held aloft in a lighter, open space, others settling into a darker, heavier field below. The horizontal divide creates a quiet pause. A moment where movement slows and the eye lingers between two states. Soft blue tones and subtle pink highlights bring a sense of air and lightness, while the textured black lower section anchors the composition with depth and weight. The contrast between the rhythmic background marks above and the worked, scraped surface below adds a physical presence to the painting, inviting closer inspection. The work is influenced by my ongoing fascination with the balance between movement and stillness, ease and resistance, light and dark.
